Ep.47 Miracles in medicine? The life-changing science of spontaneous healing w/ Jeffrey Rediger
What are the root causes of illness? Why do medicine and psychiatry only treat symptoms instead of causes? What can spontaneous remissions (i.e. people ‘miraculously’ or unexpectedly healing from ‘incurable’ diseases) teach us about the nature of healing and wellness? What are the four key ingredients to lasting health & wellbeing? What role does love play in healing?
These are topics I explore with physician, psychiatrist and best-selling author Jeffrey Rediger. He is an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School and the Medical Director of McLean SE Adult Psychiatry and Community Affairs at McLean Hospital. A licensed physician and board-certified psychiatrist, he also has a Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary. His research with remarkable individuals who have recovered from incurable illnesses has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Oz Shows, among others. He has been nominated for the National Bravewell Leadership Award, and has received numerous awards related to leadership and patient care. And notably, he is the author of best-selling book, Cured: Strengthen Your Immune System and Heal Your Life, which is the theme of much of this podcast episode.
We also discuss ways in which Jeffrey has had a ‘starting over’ in life, including the loss of his fiancé Jane in a tragic car accident at which he was present, what he believes to be the root of suffering and pain in the world and what we can do about it.
This conversation is hopeful, inspiring, informative and Jeffrey brings such heart, humanity and humility that I know you will all love. I hope you enjoy the episode and if you do, please share with a friend!
